DM 20 Ancillary Development

Proposals for ancillary development within or in close proximity to mineral and waste development will be granted planning permission provided that:

  1. the proposal is necessary to enable the main development to proceed
  2. it has been demonstrated that there are environmental benefits in providing a close link with the existing site that outweigh the environmental impacts.

Where permission is granted, the operation and retention of the associated development will be limited to the life of the linked mineral or waste facility.
